Answer:

P = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

y2-y1 / x2-x1 = slope formula

p-2/10-6 =

p-2 over 4

P would be -6 since -6-2 = -8, and -8/4 = -2

Write this ratio as a fraction in simplest form without any units. 28 quarts to 9 gallons You can use the table below to help co

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

7/9

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to write the fraction without any units (as a pure number), we must have units in the numerator and denominator that are the same. Then the units cancel.

<h3>Convert to gallons</h3>

We are given the conversion ...

4 quarts = 1 gallon

Multiplying by 7, we see ...

28 quarts = 7 gallons

<h3>Ratio</h3>

This lets us write the desired fraction as ...

(28 quarts)/(9 gallons) = (7 gallons)/(9 gallons) = 7/9

The ratio in simplest form is 7/9.

Find what n equals 8(2n-2) = 4 - 4n (explanation please)

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{n=1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the value of n that satisfies this equation, we can perform a series of algebraic steps on it to solve for n.

$8(2n-2) = 4- 4n$
<em>Distribute in the 8 on the left side:</em>
<em /> $16n-16=4-4n$ <em> </em>
<em>Add 4n to both sides</em>
$20n-16=4$
<em>Add 16 to both sides</em>
$20n = 20$
<em>Divide both sides by 20</em>
$n=1$

Therefore, n=1 is the value of n that satisfies this equation.

Hope this helped!
